Improving diagnosis accuracy for small lung adenocarcinoma during surgery

Improving the Intraoperative Diagnosis Accuracy for Pre-invasive and Invasive Small-sized Lung Adenocarcinoma Node by Combining Multi-modal Information

Observational Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology · NCT05830812

This study is testing if using different types of information during surgery can help doctors more accurately determine how invasive small lung adenocarcinomas are in patients with early-stage lung cancer.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to enhance the accuracy of intraoperative diagnosis of invasiveness in small-sized lung adenocarcinoma by utilizing multi-modal information. It focuses on determining the predictive value of this information for assessing invasiveness in patients with operable clinical stage I lung cancer. The study will collect retrospective data from participants who meet specific eligibility criteria, including recent CT examinations and confirmed lung adenocarcinoma diagnoses. The findings could lead to more precise surgical decisions and better patient outcomes.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are patients aged 20 to 80 with operable clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma and tumors less than 3cm in diameter.

Not a fit: Patients with a history of preoperative treatment or those with incomplete clinical information may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved surgical outcomes for patients with small-sized lung adenocarcinoma by enabling more accurate intraoperative diagnoses.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is innovative, similar studies have shown promise in improving diagnostic accuracy in other cancer types, suggesting potential for success.
